    Hi all

    Hi all,
    Been hunting for a wee while now mainly lower/central North island.
    Used a Winchester 30/30 in the southern Tararuas/Rimutakas for years with mixed success. really like hunting up close in the bush but have had a lot of longer range opportunities
    so ive got a CZ 550 in .308

    Welcome. Your story sounds very familiar....
    I hunted the Ruahines with a 30-30, but after regularly seeing deer out on the slips I bought a BRNO 308 (in 1992).

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Welcome to the forum.
    I have a Winchester 30/30 but have only shot the odd homekill beast with it so far.
